the question is the owner of the car (private car meant for personal use) let out his car on hire to some persons. The vehicle met with an accident and one of the passenger in the car died and his LR'S filed claim petition before MACT claiming compensation against the owner of the car as well as Insurance Co.
In the cross examination it is proved that the deceased paid Rs 3000/- as fare charges.
the point is since the vehicle is a private car and the car was let out on hire Policy does not cover hire or reward.
Any judgements to show that Insurance company is not liable to pay compensation as the vehicle was let out on hire.
